The 6-foot-2 quarterback has the goods: a quick release, strong arm, great accuracy and outstanding athletic ability. Johnson, who also plays baseball, added an offer from Virginia Tech on Monday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1854169"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69fc909ce3b9a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1854169' first='Carson' last='Sloan'] is another uber-talented defensive lineman for Center Grove, and recently earned offers from Purdue and Miami-Ohio.

Watson can sift through blockers, quickly read-and-react, diagnose and wrap up v. The run. He plays with good bend and low pad level. He also has a quick first step, and is very disruptive as a pass rusher. Keep an eye on his recruiting to pop this summer. Picked up an offer from Youngstown State and Buffalo.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2204285"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69fc909ce3c0e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Could [player_tooltip player_id='2204285' first='Roman' last='Youngs'] be the next Carson Steele? It's certainly a possibility as the 6-foot-1, 180-pound wideout / athlete has the size and strength to be a top prospect. Youngs is nifty after the catch, making defenders miss in space, and has the atheleticismto leap over would-be tackles, land on his feet and stay balanced after the catch.
